In a large thermal reactor operating at high flux levels, the periodic redistribution of xenon poisoning causes oscillation in the power distribution. Ward's perturbation to reactors with power distributions that differ signiificantly from the fundamental shapes. The methods developed predict the oscillation threshold with a minimum of computation.
